This male Black-winged Cuckooshrike (Lalage melaschistos) posed for AJP in Hong Hong. A bird of south and southeast Asia it is classified as a scarce winter visitor and passage migrant in Hong Kong. However, we have seen at least one on our stay in and visits to Hong since the 1960s. There are early records of this species breeding in Hong Kong but that no longer seems to be the case. It preys on invertebrates.
